Dr_Teeth's Tribe - name suggestions

Brit

Oh well, I suppose someone had to start..

I was thinking about the name of this Tribe we are all supposed to be in. You know, the one without a name?

I like the idea of Tribe Tux - and we could do a skin which is a nice Tuxedo. Y'know - look smart, and kill people.

I also like the Greek god ideas. Sadly, the Furies were indeed all women, so that would make us look like a bunch of online transexuals - an image I'm not altogether happy with*

So, lets have some suggestions - get the ball rolling so to speak. Who knows, someone might come up with something really, truly amazing, like;

"Dr_Teeth's Tribe of people he recruited from the IGN.ie UBB."

Catchy huh?

--Brit--

*That is not to say that those persons who are currently fall into the transexual descriptive bracket don't contribute something useful and valid to the society we live in. (This paragraph was required as part of an ongoing EU programme of political correctness).

Only they aren't IGN's yet. They are the "Cloud boards"

I suppose something a cloud theme in it (The Cirrus nimblus Tribe), but then Cloud would proberly send his lawyers around.

tHE vAGGABOND

To tell the truth i'm all over bent's tribe tux idea - the tux skins would rock

I still want a weird ass name - most quake and quake 2 clans have ****ty names. Whats that englist one 'clan 9'

I think since we will be THE irish tribe no matter what - we need a name of celtic origin
"Fion McCool and the Paddy Whackers"
or even "St Patrick's Snake Phuckers"
[spsp]Vaggabond - got a ring to it you must agree

'soldiers of destiny'

or even cooler, from a kilmaniam gaol story 'the invincibles'


the golden children

or 'the microsofties'

[microsoftie]vaggabond

Dr_Teeth

Well the most obvious name is "Electric Mayhem" (and if you don't get the connection, you had a sad and deprived childhood ). Brit, "Tux" has nothing to do with evening wear, for shame! -10 bonus points for you! I suppose we could make some reference to Patrick Tilley's books, just to please Cloud, but I don't think so.

The Tribe now is..

Dr. Teeth
Ehldas
Dupre
Fiend
Feelgood
Vaggabond
Jade
Jaguar
Chungking
Shinji Kun
Brit
Hecate

I think 12 is a good number, Dupre and Feelgood are inactive at the moment, so that leaves 10 - which is the maximum allowed in the UKTL, which will be the first league we enter (at the end of the current season).

Teeth.

Jade

How about the "Irish Republican Tribe" or "Tribe Republica"

Has that certain ring to it that indicates that we are going to mine thier Gen room, without destroying it, then sending a false warning making them panic into the gen room causing the destruction of them all !

Love Jade - the cutest Triber of 'em all

tHE vAGGABOND

Blinkin good tribe - as good as any possible I recon

There are only two players who r good enough right now to get a scream at the team...

1. Shadwell - very good defense player who never goes up just guards the flag and repairs - he has been super helpfull to me whenever hes around (ie: saved my ass more than once ?)

2. Sherpa - dont know much - he always seems to be on the pulse gowing foward

whacha recon - were all gonna have to meet up fur booze at some point.....

LegacyUser

Well I came up with the idea of a "Linux" tribe to smite the MS tribe, and Teeth modified this slightly to be Tribe Tux (kinda like the way they add -ux onto all the flavours of UNIX, Hewlett-Packard UNIX = HPUX, therefore Tribes = TUX).

Then I imagined a Jetpacking Penguin as the logo, nice tuxedoed chappy with blue stuff coming out of his backpack

Anyway TT is cool I think, motto "take that MS"

BTW I haven't played in ages so feel free to ignore my rants.

Prefix TUX is better now that I think of it, who wants to be confused with Take That!

sherpa

I appreciate Vag's vote of confidence, but I frankly wouldn't wish to be in any tribe that includes idiots once involved with CC.
Sadly, Dr. Teeth has seen fit to take Jade and Jaguar, who are possibly the most annoying morons around. Ah well.

Jade

Cranky just posted this post from the office.
That is why no one knows how else Shepra is or how to contact him !!!

Cloud - check the logs and you will see that the above post came from a Telecom extension !!!!!

Argggg cranky, will you stop messing around !!! Its getting annoying now

Dr_Teeth

I'm just as quick to drop people. I don't like muppets. Oh no. Sherpa and Dar are two other great players I'd like to have on board, we'll see how things go.

Teeth.

Jade

More proof that sherpa is Cranky.

Look at the profile of sherpa and note that the name was regestered today and has a total of 1 posts....
So as I said above he logged on from work here, 4 mins after I answered his post and showed it to him , I showed it to him and regerested the name sherpa..

And on a slighly different topic, every post cranky makes it is to make a bad public image of myself and Jag. Both of us are tired of this, and we want to be able to enjoy the boards and post normal messages instead of every message having to be a defence for something Cranky said.

Teeth, Me and Jag are serious about your clan, have you ever seen us messing in the servers ? (Except for that fake leadership fight 2 weeks ago)

Please stop it Cranky, joke's over.

"so that would make us look like a bunch
of online transexuals - an image I'm not altogether happy with"

ah well now, I belong to a q2 clan called HIV (Hot Internet Virgins) which was set up about a year ago as a joke, i think the clan was contrived after a night on the pi5s(which is the best way imho). But it got serious after we actually *won* a few matches..mostly against players from Gibralter with 300+ pings..but we won nonetheless. This boosted our confidence no end and we're amongst the top 3 Irish q2 clans now (not that theres that many). What I'm saying is dont discount this name...ye never know

Cranky

Jade, stop your whinging. Of course the Sherpa post was a fake, and if Teeth didn't want you and Jaguar in his clan, you wouldn't be in it. Your servile attempts to crawl up inside his rectum would be funny, if they were not so sad.

Dr. Teeth, I have simple respect for your abilities at Tribes, and the fact that John, I mean Jade, has decided to make public the fact that all he does for the good people at Telecom Eireann is sit on the net all day, instead of actually earning a living, is none of my business. Just don't start complaining to me next year when none of the phone services work.... You'll just have to ask Jade why he/she/it couldn't be bothered to do an honest day's work for the people who pay him. (This post forwarded to Alfie Kane.)

Jade

ROFL,I finaly broke him !!!

Jade 1, Cranky 0

Take it !!

ROFL

Cranky

Jade, the only things you've ever broken are the heart of Jaguar (you evil little man) for leading him on, and of course, the record for
most consecutive time spent standing still in heavy armor.

Jade

Jag is a big boy now, he can look after himself for a change. And BTW i don't spend all my time on the net in work, only an hour a day, rest of the time i'm surfing for work related stuff.

Honest

Hobbes

Cranky whats your Quake name? or are you new here? If so quit your personal attacks and fake posts. Either talk about Tribes or sod off to another board (quake board puts up with people like you, only proberly not for long).

Jaguar

Cranky you dont have a clue so stop digging a deeper hole for yourself.

As for a name for the tribe, Tux is ok but a
kickin name from mythology would be cool
how bout

Tribe Banshee
Fomorians
Tuatha dé Danaan

i dont know but its up to you

Shinji

Tuatha dé Dannan sounds cool

mata ne!
Rob

ChungKing

Tuatha dé Danaan
or
Tribe Banshee

would get my vote

tHE vAGGABOND

We could all look for banshee boards as sponsorship

cool name - but are banshees not chicks also?

vagga

Brit

Indeedy do - Banshee's were of the female ghostly variety. Again, the whole issue of sex-identity arises. That not to say I don't identify with sex - quite the contrary

So it was Cranky playing as Melieen (or whatever he called himself) on the server last night. I have never seen anyone fail so comprehensively to learn that I use mortars in place of regular weapons like the blaster. I mean, even X3MAX worked it out after a week or so... and then I switched to plasma and he's still learning

Time and time again he'd wizz up the side of a hill *thunk* zoom towards me *boom* - Brit PTT mortars Melieen into Oblivion... must have done it best part of 5 times in 5 minutes - despite the filthy obscenities streaming from his/her rancid uncontrollable facial orifice.

I like the idea of an irish mythology name - although I won't pretend to be at all knowledgeable on the subject of Celtic history. So long however, as we don't end up sounding like an Enya B-side title.

I still like the idea of us all running round in Tuxedos.. we could operate a true closed door policy on our base - "base bouncers" if you like. And our motto could be:

If you name's not on the list, you ain't comin' in..

--Brit--

ChungKing

If yer name's not on the list, you ain't comin' in

I like that a lot & in fact was playing with someone on desert of death (can't remember the name, but i don't think it was any of you guys) & Ent (a newbie who i work with) kept coming at us & kept getting shut down - this guy and i had a good chuckle telling him such things i don't care if you come here all the time, you ain't comin' in!!

lol - access denied!

sherpa

Brit, if you'd like the demo of the 3 times you mortared Mileena, I'll be happy to send them to you. As you well know, no personal attacks are tolerated on this board. Nor are any obscenities permitted on the game, so your specious remark about orifices (of which your posterior one is so inflamed I dread thinking about it) is laughable.

By the way: You suck

Dr_Teeth

Cranky, cop on. Post under your own nick or not at all. Your constant sniping and argumentative manner is tiresome and annoying. Don't you have anything constructive to say? I suppose it's to be expected.. To quote the old saying - "It's in the nature of Usenet that someone will eventually post "Red Things Suck!" in alt.fan.red.things."

Teeth.

SeP

emm snipe is not a nice term there!
i "snipe" all the time in tribes yet im still a nice guy

question of the day : why _is_ cranky such a ************** jaysus!

Cranky

Teeth, lighten up. I'm not the least bit interested in your methods of moderating this board. If sherpa wants an id on this board, then he can bloody well post a message on it,
and I'll send him the password. 'Cranky' plays on IGN every night, under about 50 or more different names thus far. Who cares?
The fact that I've got to suffer the same ridiculous timeouts, lags, pl's and such as the rest of you is more than adequate compensation for any aggravation you feel with my posts. If you wish to do your gaming community a favor, stop trying to 'moderate' a la Stalin, and call your friends at IGN and tell them to get a decent server, a decent ISP, and etcetera. I'm waiting for your even-handed and moderate message to Brit not to slag another person's playing. But since that's probably not forthcoming, I'll just go
get my balaclava on and smash his kneecaps....

Cranky

Oh yeah, that last post was for the benefit of Jade, who told me he was bored with the stuff you guys were posting, and requested the return of Cranky....

Jade

I am going to remain calm... I am not going to freak out at you Cranky.... I am sick of you and your cheap lies.

This is yet another personal atack at me, and I for one feel that you should be banned from this message board and kicked off the IGN server whenever his true identiy is found.

I did not want the return of Cranky, he gets a bit carried away. I don't talk to him in work because last time I did he hit me !!!!
I have to work with the guy, and then go home to enjoy a nice game of tribes and to read the boards only to find him in tribes and on the boards posting utter crap.

Can I make an offical complaint to the IGN about him ?


Jade

Dr_Teeth

Could you two go smoke a bowl or something?
btw, if anyone causes hassle on the server, they WILL be kicked!

See ya'll this evening
Teeth.

Cranky

LOL!!! Teeth, I wouldn't be so damned cranky if I knew how to make smiley faces on this board. I am going to experiment now...must be a control sequence, eh?

Whoops, that brought up a browser menu. Oh well, guess I'll stay cranky....

If I HAD a bowl of something, I'd smoke it, but it might be noodles, which would not be very good....

In case anybody thinks I ever hit Jade, it's simply not true. I would never hit a girl!

Brit

Lol - Cranky is going to smash my kneecaps. Hehe - of course, what else did I expect. Well, once they let you out of your rubber room, and reduce your medication, then by all means, come on over and we'll have a 'chat'.

The point of this thread was to discuss what we were going to call Dr_Teeths Tribe. It seems to have been utterly derailed from that subject - perhaps we could take a moment to 'refocus' ??

--Brit--

Dr_Teeth

Unless there are any objections, I'm going to go with "Electric Mayhem" [EM]. It's kinda a tradition from my Quake days.

I'm going to be very busy for the next week or so, after that we'll start getting things together.

Teeth.

tHE vAGGABOND

aHHHH the sweet smell of democracy

Dr_Teeth

Who said anything about democracy? This is a (sometimes) benevolent dictatorship.

Teeth.

YuM

tHE vAGGABOND

Teeth,

You talked a while back about a UKTL any URL's or whatever for us.....

The name isent too bad, its not kalahari wombats or St pats snake phuckers but I supose its do (er...do we have a choice )

The Vaggabond of the Western World
Electric Mayhem Tribe

ButcherOfNog

Scandalously Cruel Armed B*stards Tribe?

and you can thank hellfire for that one

Shinji

But.... but.... But Electric Mayhem is a crap name!!!!

No seriously, it is. After all the good suggestions in this thread... mutter mutter bloody dictator mutter mutter you AND your bleedin plasma gun mutter mutter....



Mata ne!
Rob

Hecate

yay! i can finally stick those []'s in front of my nick ..makes me look all official like, plus it scares newbies .."uh oh..who are all these guys with [EM] in front of their names..they're out to get me i know it"

Cranky

I think Electric Mayhem is a GREAT name. Of course it means you should all stick to using only the ELF gun.....

Shinji

Wah... it's a great name for a Quake clan. Come on, move with the times....

Mata ne!
Rob (shedding the baggage of the past...)

ChungKing

Wouldn't Tribe MAYHEM be a better name? I dunno but Electric Mayhem reminds me of that horrible 80's movie/pop song Electric Dreams... shudder
